Speedlining 100ft Beech trees

[stevebullman]

This job took 6 days all in all at a nice relaxed pace. Spec was to deadwood and reduce the weight back on the moat side. Obvious hazard was the powerlines, not so much of a hazard as a hinderance as it limited the angle we could set the speedline at.
Trees were ranged from 90-100ft

Very nice job of speedlining! That would have been a perfect job for my hitch rigging plate.

The sound of the trolly over the line was sweet in its self!!!

hehe. that was attempt 2. attempt 1 ended with my x170 in the moat....i can confirm that it is indeed waterproof, but as an added bonus it floats too!!

nicely done, I love zip line jobs, and having the time to go at a safe pace is all the better
